    #809: Jacquard Chief Product & Growth Officer Toby Coulthard on sounding verifiably human in an AI world

    As every brand rushes to adopt generative AI, what if the greatest competitive advantage is no longer about speed and scale, but about sounding uniquely, verifiably human? Agility requires moving beyond the hype of new technology to strategically apply it for true differentiation. It's about being smart and selective, not just fast. Today, we're going to talk about a paradox at the heart of modern marketing. Generative AI has promised unprecedented scale and personalization, but for many, it's delivering a sea of sameness where brand voice gets lost. We'll explore how to break free from this generic output, moving from a reactive "test and learn" model to a predictive one, and discuss the critical balance of combining AI's power with essential human expertise to maintain brand soul, safety, and performance across countless channels. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Toby Coulthard, Chief Product & Growth Officer at Jacquard. About Toby Coulthard Toby Coulthard is Chief Product & Growth Officer at Jacquard.

    One week ahead of his much-anticipated Super Bowl performance, Bad Bunny made history when he won the first Grammy for album of the year for a Spanish-language record. He used his acceptance remarks to admonish cruel immigration enforcement, uplift immigrants and shout out his native Puerto Rico. As scholars Vanessa Díaz and Petra Rivera-Rideau, point out in their new book, “P FKN R: How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance,” the reggaetonero has never shied away from infusing politics into his musical career.

    As a marketing leader, you often spend so much time on the strategies and tactics that keep your brand growing that it's difficult to keep up with what's going on in the background with the platforms and the companies behind them. While agility requires a flexible technology stack, it also requires a leadership mindset that can distinguish market noise from genuine strategic opportunity, and filter out the hype to understand the shifts that can impact customers and the bottom line. The ability to pivot your people, processes, and platforms in response to major market shifts is no longer a nice to have, but rather a competitive advantage. Today, I'm excited to talk with our 2026 Resident Expert on the CX and MarTech platform landscape. We're going to focus on the business and business opportunities that mergers, acquisitions, and big moves in the market provide to these platforms' customers.

    With every board member and CEO demanding a generative AI strategy yesterday, how much of the conversation is about creating real business value versus simply not being left behind? Agility requires more than just speed; it demands a fundamental shift in how we approach problem-solving and storytelling, especially when a technology like AI re-writes the rulebook. Today, we're going to talk about the real tension that exists between the incredible promise of generative AI and the practical, often messy reality of enterprise adoption. We'll explore how to bridge the gap between deeply technical products and the clear, compelling narratives that actually convince customers and boards to invest.

    Amiga, if you're feeling the heaviness right now, I feel you. This is my first episode back from maternity leave, and I could not come back without acknowledging what we are collectively experiencing. With everything happening around ICE and the way our immigrant communities are being targeted, this moment feels deeply personal, especially for those of us who are first-gen and daughters of immigrants. This isn't just politics. This is trauma resurfacing. This is fear we grew up with showing up again in real time. In this episode, I'm holding space for the emotions many of us are feeling fear, sadness, anger, helplessness, and I'm also sharing simple, intentional ways we can activate, resist, and take up space as Latina leaders right now. ✨ What I Talk About in This Episode Why what's happening is retraumatizing for so many first-gen Latinas How growing up as daughters of immigrants shaped our fear, resilience, and leadership Why silence is often rooted in privilege and why some people don't have the option to speak How to show up with intention instead of pressure or performative activism Why becoming the best version of ourselves is a powerful form of resistance

    Healing does not always start in a textbook or a therapy room. Sometimes it begins in a family story, a breakup, a body that learned to survive too early, or a question we were never taught to ask ourselves. This episode is about what happens when a Latina decides to listen to those experiences instead of outrunning them.In today's episode of Amiga Handle Your Shit, Jackie Tapia sits down with licensed clinical social worker, somatic therapist, and holistic healer Norma Garcia, a proud first-generation Mexicana born and raised in Los Angeles. Together, they explore how personal history, cultural identity, and lived experience can be resignified into powerful tools for healing, not just for ourselves, but for our communities.Norma reflects on growing up as the daughter of Mexican immigrants, carrying responsibility early and learning how to survive emotionally before she ever had language for it. She speaks to the invisible weight many first-generation Latinas carry, the pressure to succeed, to sacrifice, to keep going. That weight followed her into years of community mental health work, where burnout and broken systems forced her to ask a hard question: what does it cost to always be the strong one? Her shift into private practice was not about ambition, but about choosing care that felt honest, human, and whole.She also shares how a personal breakup cracked something open, exposing patterns of people-pleasing and self-abandonment rooted in culture and survival. That moment reshaped her work, leading her to support Latinas in understanding how they love, how they attach, and how safety actually feels in the body. Through somatic healing, Norma reminds us that healing is not just thinking differently; it is learning to feel safe again. She closes with a simple grounding practice, a quiet invitation to come back home to yourself.Tune in to episode 268 of Amiga Handle Your Shit for a deeply affirming conversation on Latinidad, self-trust, healing the body, and turning lived experience into a source of wisdom and service.Episode TakeawaysHow growing up first-gen shapes responsibility, identity, and emotional survival (04:00)Why mental health conversations often skip Latino households and how that impacts adulthood (06:40)What ten years in community mental health taught Norma about burnout and scarcity (14:30)Why entrepreneurship became an act of self-preservation, not ambition (16:00)How personal heartbreak revealed generational patterns around love and self-abandonment (20:00)What “love blueprints” are and how culture shapes how we attach and relate (21:30)Why healing requires addressing the nervous system, not just the mind (27:00)How somatic therapy reconnects the body, emotions, and sense of safety (28:30)A simple grounding practice to support yourself during emotional triggers (31:30)Why Latinas deserve healing that honors culture, body, and soul together (34:00)Connect with Norma Garcia:WebsiteLinkedInInstagramLet's Connect!WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInJackie Tapia Arbonne's websiteBook: The AMIGA Way: Release Cultural Limiting Beliefs to Transform Your Life Hosted on Acast.

    What if the biggest risk to your marketing AI strategy isn't the technology itself, but the org chart it's fracturing? Agility requires more than just speed; it demands a framework of trust and collaboration. When it comes to AI, this means your ability to innovate is directly tied to your ability to partner effectively across the organization, especially with IT and security. Today, we're going to talk about a critical tension point in the modern enterprise: Marketing is moving at the speed of AI, adopting powerful, often low-code tools to drive results. But this speed creates new complexities and risks, disrupting traditional roles and processes. Success is no longer just about having the best tech stack; it's about forging a strategic partnership between the CMO and IT leaders to balance innovation with governance, and productivity with security.

As someone who experienced postpartum depression twice and grew up witnessing the silent sacrifices of Marianismo, Juda brings both professional expertise and lived experience to this conversation. We dive deep into the cultural expectations that keep us silent about our struggles, the identity loss that comes with motherhood, and most importantly, how we can redefine what it means to be a "good mom" without erasing ourselves in the process.For detailed show notes, visit vivalamami.com/episode148What You'll Hear:What "silent grief" really means for professional Latina moms and why we struggle to voice our losses.How Marianismo shapes our motherhood experience, creating the cultural expectation that we must sacrifice everything.Matrescence explained, and why it's critically under-supported in our communities.The Self-Care Menu framework - a practical approach to filling your cup daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly without the mom guilt.Why there's no such thing as perfect balance, and how to embrace the "beautiful dance" of prioritizing different parts of your life at different times.Building community and finding support systems beyond your partner, especially when cultural barriers make it hard to ask for help.Resources Mentioned:Postpartum Support International (PSI) - Free resources in EnglishPSI en Español - Spanish-language support and communityDr. Alexandra Sacks' TED Talk on MatrescenceConnect with Juda: Instagram: @jjpostpartumwellnessTikTok: @judapsicycoachWebsite: bio.site/jjwellnesscoachingSupport the showSHOP MY NEWEST PRODUCTS - "How to Get Dual Citizenship in Mexico" E-Guide & Digital Course

    Confira os destaques de Os Pingos nos Is desta quarta-feira (28):Apesar da tentativa do governo de se afastar do caso, a pressão pela CPI do Banco Master ganhou apoio de parlamentares da base e da oposição. O movimento no Congresso indica consenso para investigar o escândalo em meio ao avanço na coleta de assinaturas. A ministra Gleisi Hoffmann (PT) intensificou a pressão para que Fernando Haddad dispute as eleições em São Paulo em 2026. O ministro da Fazenda resiste à candidatura e avalia deixar o cargo para atuar apenas na coordenação da campanha do PT. Após a mudança para o PSD, o governador de Goiás, Ronaldo Caiado, participou do primeiro evento representando a sigla em São Paulo. No encontro, ele confirmou ter conversado com Flávio Bolsonaro sobre o cenário eleitoral de 2026. O presidente do PL, Valdemar Costa Neto, defendeu a união da centro-direita e da direita já no primeiro turno das eleições presidenciais para enfrentar Lula. Segundo ele, a estratégia mais viável é concentrar apoio em Flávio Bolsonaro desde o início da disputa. O Comitê de Política Monetária (COPOM) decidiu manter a taxa Selic em 15% ao ano, maior patamar em quase duas décadas. Apesar disso, o Copom sinalizou a possibilidade de iniciar cortes a partir da próxima reunião, diante da expectativa de controle da inflação. Durante o Fórum Econômico Internacional da América Latina, no Panamá, o presidente Lula (PT) criticou o que chamou de “intervenções militares ilegais” na região. Sem citar nomes, o discurso foi interpretado como um recado direto aos Estados Unidos, em meio às tensões geopolíticas no continente. O governo estuda enviar ao Congresso um projeto único para unificar propostas sobre o fim da escala 6x1. Comentaristas alertam para riscos de desemprego, aumento da informalidade e impacto negativo na economia, enquanto defendem um debate baseado em dados. Após ser criticado por integrantes da própria direita, o deputado Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG) minimizou as cobranças e afirmou que se trata de uma “parcelinha” do campo político. O parlamentar também reiterou apoio a Flávio Bolsonaro em 2026. A morte do cachorro Orelha, atribuída a adolescentes, gerou forte comoção e levantou questionamentos sobre responsabilização penal no Brasil. O caso reacendeu o debate após a Suécia anunciar planos para reduzir a maioridade penal em crimes graves. Você confere essas e outras notícias em Os Pingos nos Is.

El dato duro es contundente: la región crece 1.5 veces más rápido que el promedio global y las ventas por internet superarán los 215 mil millones de dólares en 2026. México y Brasil encabezan ese crecimiento, pero México destaca porque, entre 2018 y 2024, la penetración del comercio electrónico se cuadruplicó y, en 2026, como proporción de las ventas totales al menudeo, rebasará por primera vez a la de Estados Unidos.

    When an AI agent makes a decision that costs your company millions in a lawsuit, who do you fire? Agility requires both the speed to adopt new technologies like AI agents, as well as the foresight to build the guardrails that prevent that speed from driving your brand off a cliff. Today, we're going to talk about the hidden crisis brewing behind the AI revolution: the accountability gap. As companies race to replace roles with autonomous AI agents, a critical question is being ignored: when an agent makes a biased, unethical, or simply wrong decision that harms a customer or an employee, who is actually responsible? This isn't a future problem; it's happening right now, and it poses a massive threat to brand trust, customer relationships, and legal standing.

    In this week's episode, we examine a specific brand of dark femininity that feels like a vestige of 2016, embodied through dramatic imagery of luxury accessories, cartoon vixens, and predatory wildlife, and expressed through a paradoxical strain of man-hating male centrism. We discuss this aesthetic's positioning in opposition to the Clean Girl and how interpersonal dynamics popularized by sex work inform its understanding of power and money. We also investigate why the dark feminine resonates so deeply among women of the so-called “Latina belt,” drawing connections to chola culture and Arabic literary traditions to explore how this affect functions as a negotiation between patriarchal tradition and Western ideas about female sexuality and autonomy. Finally, we identify the aesthetic's greatest arbiters and muses, from Helmut Newton and Riccardo Tisci to Maddy Perez and BLACKPINK's Lisa.Links: Image board Examples on Instagram, TikTokRalph Bakshi: A Forgotten PioneerRihanna - B***h Better Have My Money (Explicit) (Official Music Video)BbyMutha - RULES (Official Music Video)Why Men Love B*****s: From Doormat to Dreamgirl by Sherry Argov“How the Cholo Clown Became the Face of L.A.” by Frank Rojas for LA Times (“Smile Now, Cry Later” history)Viral Alexa Demie Yo Voy clip Ghazal History – Encyclopaedia IranicaBLACKPINK's Lisa introduces “Vixi” @shopnou_ on Instagram“The Wild World of Chris von Wangenheim” by Daisy Woodward for AnOtherChris von Wanghenheim on TheFashionSpot“Pomellato Revives Helmut Newton's Daring '80s Campaigns in a New Show” by Annie Davidson Watson for WRicardo Tisci by Donatella Versace for InterviewGivenchy Fall 2011 Menswear on Vogue RunwayGivenchy Spring 2011 Ready-to-Wear on Vogue RunwayGivenchy Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear on Vogue Runway This is a public episode.

    No 3 em 1 desta quarta-feira (28), o destaque foram os registros do Gabinete de Segurança Institucional (GSI) que indicam que Daniel Vorcaro, dono do Banco Master, esteve no Palácio do Planalto ao menos quatro vezes entre 2023 e 2024. Apesar das entradas, o nome do empresário não aparece nas agendas oficiais das autoridades do Executivo, segundo apuração de Janaína Camelo. Ainda sobre o caso Banco Master, o relator da CPI do Crime Organizado, senador Alessandro Vieira (MDB-SE), afirmou que há indícios de crime organizado e que estuda incluir o tema no escopo da comissão. Segundo ele, há relatos de relações suspeitas do grupo controlador do banco com figuras dos três Poderes, o que pode levar a pedidos de quebra de sigilo fiscal, bancário e telemático dos envolvidos. No Congresso, governo e oposição articulam a criação de uma CPI ou CPMI para investigar o caso Banco Master. De acordo com Bruno Pinheiro, há consenso sobre a necessidade de apuração, embora persistam divergências quanto a requerimentos e convocações, em meio à troca de acusações entre aliados do governo e a oposição. No campo político, o governador de Goiás, Ronaldo Caiado, deixou o União Brasil e se filiou ao PSD após conversas com lideranças do campo bolsonarista, incluindo o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ). Segundo Misael Mainetti, Caiado defende a pulverização das candidaturas presidenciais como estratégia para impedir um quarto mandato do presidente Lula. A mudança de partido gerou reação do presidente do Solidariedade, Paulinho da Força, que afirmou que Caiado abriu mão da candidatura presidencial ao se filiar ao PSD e declarou que o governador “caiu no conto de Gilberto Kassab”. A troca de legenda surpreendeu aliados e repercutiu nos bastidores políticos. No cenário internacional, o governo dos Estados Unidos elevou o tom contra a presidente interina da Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez. O secretário de Estado, Marco Rubio, afirmou que ela pode ter o mesmo destino de Nicolás Maduro, que está sob custódia americana, aumentando a tensão entre Washington e Caracas. Na agenda institucional, o ministro da Justiça, Wellington César Lima e Silva, se reuniu com o presidente da Câmara, Hugo Motta, e com o procurador-geral da República, Paulo Gonet, em busca de alinhamento sobre a pauta da segurança pública. Entre os temas discutidos estão a PEC da Segurança e o projeto de lei antifacção, que tratam do endurecimento contra organizações criminosas. Durante discurso no Fórum Econômico da América Latina e do Caribe, no Panamá, o presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) defendeu maior integração entre os países da região e afirmou que a divisão torna o continente mais frágil no cenário internacional. Sem citar diretamente os Estados Unidos, Lula criticou operações militares e disse que o uso da força não resolve os problemas dos povos. No Legislativo, o líder do PT na Câmara, deputado Lindbergh Farias, afirmou que o acordo entre Mercosul e União Europeia pode ser votado antes do Carnaval. A declaração foi feita após reunião de líderes com o presidente da Câmara, Hugo Motta, que também definiu a votação de medidas provisórias e a organização da pauta econômica e social das próximas semanas. No Supremo Tribunal Federal, o ministro Alexandre de Moraes concedeu liminar retirando as despesas do Ministério Público da União (MPU) do teto de gastos. A decisão atendeu a um pedido da Procuradoria-Geral da República, que alegou a necessidade de paridade de tratamento entre o Judiciário e o Ministério Público em relação às receitas próprias dos órgãos.

    For years, we've heard about AI transforming software development. But what if that same level of agentic, AI-driven collaboration could be applied not just to writing code, but to writing your entire go-to-market playbook? Agility requires that your go-to-market teams operate at the speed of insight, not at the speed of manual data entry and fragmented workflows. This means empowering them with tools that don't just provide data, but automate action based on strategic intent. Today, we're going to talk about the concept of an 'agentic' go-to-market platform, where AI doesn't just assist, but actively collaborates with sales and marketing teams to automate entire workflows, from strategy to execution. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Marcio Arnecke, Chief Marketing Officer at Apollo.io.

If you've ever felt like you're working twice as hard for half the reward… this episode will make you feel seen and fired up.What We Get Into00:00 Why this Latina wealth data matters01:10 Meet Dr. Marlene Orozco04:25 First-gen roots & entrepreneurship09:30 Necessity vs opportunity businesses12:50 The Latina wealth paradox17:45 The 27% pay gap explained23:50 Entrepreneurship as a wealth strategy29:55 Homeownership & credit barriers34:10 Retirement & investment gaps37:45 Financial first responders47:40 The motherhood penalty56:20 Hope, policy & what's nextKey TakeawaysLatinas are not behind because of bad choices — the system is working exactly as designed.Education and entrepreneurship do increase earning potential, but they are not enough without access to capital and policy support.Caregiving, cultural expectations, and family responsibility significantly limit Latinas' ability to save and invest.Homeownership remains a primary wealth strategy, but affordability, credit access, and insurance risks threaten long-term stability.Real change requires structural solutions, not just individual financial literacy.Resources MentionedREPORT - Latina Wealth In America: https://latinoprosperity.org/research,Latino AI Summit: https://tinyurl.com/latinoaisummit2026 Stratefied Insights: https://www.stratifiedinsights.com/ Marlene's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marlene-orozcoFree Download: New Year Dinero Reset GuideMy private membership: https://courses.yoquierodineropodcast.com/foundersHave a question?

    No 3 em 1 desta segunda-feira (26), o destaque foi a retomada, pela Polícia Federal, dos depoimentos do inquérito que apura suspeitas de irregularidades em operações financeiras e na tentativa de compra do Banco Master pelo BRB. Ao todo, oito investigados devem ser ouvidos nesta nova fase da apuração. Ainda no campo institucional, os presidentes Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) e Donald Trump conversaram por telefone por cerca de 50 minutos. Segundo o Palácio do Planalto, o diálogo tratou do combate ao crime organizado, além de temas como Venezuela, cooperação internacional e a relação econômica entre os dois países. No cenário internacional, os Estados Unidos ameaçaram usar força militar contra países vizinhos que não cooperarem no combate ao narcotráfico. O governo Trump também busca conter a influência da China e da Rússia no hemisfério ocidental, incluindo a região da Groenlândia. Reportagem de Eliseu Caetano. Na América Latina, a vice-presidente da Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, afirmou que o país pretende encerrar a influência dos Estados Unidos sobre a política interna venezuelana. A declaração reforça o discurso de confronto do governo Maduro com Washington. No cenário político nacional, o PT considera o ministro da Fazenda, Fernando Haddad, como o “plano A” para a disputa pelo governo de São Paulo em 2026. A sigla avalia que a candidatura é estratégica para fortalecer o palanque do presidente Lula no maior colégio eleitoral do país. Reportagem de André Anelli. No Supremo Tribunal Federal, o presidente da Corte, Edson Fachin, afirmou que há resistências internas à aprovação de um código de conduta para os ministros. Segundo ele, o tema enfrenta objeções especialmente por ocorrer em ano eleitoral, apesar das críticas recentes à atuação de integrantes do STF. Reportagem de André Anelli.

    What happens when your best customer is no longer a person, but an AI agent acting on their behalf? Agility requires not just adapting to new technologies, but fundamentally rethinking the customer journey when those technologies change the very definition of a customer. It demands a proactive stance on what's next, rather than a reactive one. Today, we're going to talk about the seismic shifts happening in e-commerce, fresh off the floor of NRF 2026, and what it all means for the year ahead. We'll explore the real-world impact of AI on the customer experience, the rise of agentic commerce, and how marketing leaders can prepare for a future that's arriving faster than anyone expected.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome back Lena Moriarty, Head of Marketing at eTail.

    For the last two decades, marketers have lived by the decisions one company has made and the experience customers have with that company's search bar (and in many cases, browser). But what happens when Google is dethroned by an AI? Agility requires not just adapting to new channels, but fundamentally rethinking the entire customer discovery journey when the rules are rewritten overnight. It's about moving from optimizing for keywords to influencing AI-driven conversations. Today, we're going to talk about the rise of AI browsers and Generative Engine Optimization, or GEO. Whether it's using ChatGPT or Perplexity to search the web or with tools like OpenAI's Atlas browser, we're seeing a convergence of search, shopping, and conversation that could fundamentally change how brands are discovered, evaluated, and purchased, creating a new battleground for customer data and attention. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Imri Marcus, CEO and Co-Founder at Brandlight.

    When 62% of your customers are making decisions based on deals and discounts, is investing in premium customer experience a luxury you can still afford, or is it the only thing that can actually save you? Agility requires brands to move beyond seasonal planning and into a state of continuous listening. It's about having the insight and infrastructure to pivot your customer experience strategy in real-time based on economic signals and shifting consumer priorities. Today, we're going to talk about decoding the often-conflicting signals consumers sent during the last holiday season. Five9 posted some of their findings in a report that we'll link out to in the show notes. We'll explore how deep-seated economic pressures are reshaping shopping habits, and how AI is moving from a back-office tool to a front-line differentiator that can deliver both the savings customers crave and the experiences that build loyalty. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jenn Edwards, VP of Customer Experience at Five9.
